One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I`ve snowboarded for 3 months in Jackson Hole, one of the best and biggest mountains in USA with a lot of trees and powder. Went backcountrying, built my own little snow jump and stayed there the whole afternoon, walking up and boarding down!

I`ve seen 200 degrees of sea when looking at the horizon in Monte Capogallo, Mondello, Sicily. 2 hour hike. Went out of track to find this spot.

I`ve skydive in Boituva, São Paulo. 50 secs of freedom that worthy every cent spent.

I've experienced Patagonia in a 7 day hike around Torres del Paine, got lost, saw winter, summer, autumn and spring all in the same day!
